UMR IDS (Interface Development Suite)
Featuring an advanced GUI/HMI builder and a device-optimised embedded runtime engine, the UMR IDS is a powerful development tool that reduces the standard UI coding requirements by 80%. The integrated functionality includes dynamic screens, photo-realistic transitions and effects and customizable ‘widgets’ such as gauges, charts and meters which can be employed to rapidly build key elements of the interface. The ability to directly import, export and merge Photoshop files allows graphical designs to be easily integrated to the user interface. |

The pre-integrated GUI runtime platform embedded into the UMR 5 Series allows designers to take the GUI developed using the IDS and deploy it seamlessly onto the target UMR hardware. Once deployed, the IDS allows user interfaces to be rapidly re-branded and reconfigured without code changes, meaning that end products can be quickly modified and optimised for different application, and market requirements.
Why should you choose a UMR intelligent display solution?
- The easiest and most cost-effective way to add new, embedded system functionality and a colour display interface to your next generation product
- Significant reduction in time to market.
- No more technical and commercial headaches in sourcing, interfacing and ensuring long term supply of a TFT display.
- No more debugging of embedded operating systems
- UMR is a scalable platform allowing future product enhancements to be seamless added (both in terms of embedded functionality, display options and UI development)
- Designed with end users in mind, a UMR solution helps you differentiate your product through enabling an outstanding end user experience. (Especially when used together with the UMR IDS and Anders’ UI design services)
- Enables your team to focus on your core competencies (your application, your key technologies), whilst ensuring that the display interface and the end user experience is optimized to raise user satisfaction and sales.
